About this Event
In this interactive class, we will discuss how hormones ebb and flow throughout life for people born with a uterus/ovaries. We will review how the reproductive hormones (estrogen, progesterone and testosterone) interact with each other and how the hormones insulin, cortisol an oxytocin affect reproductive hormones. This is called the "hormone hierarchy".
If we aren't proactive in keeping our hormones in balance throughout our monthly cycle, we can experience multiple symptoms. Not only the cramping and bloating many suffer through in PMS, but also fatigue, clotting, brain fog, guilt, depression and so much more. Or, we stop having our period all together, which might seem like a blessing, but our bodies need that detoxification each month in order to stay healthy and fertile.
We will wrap up with an overview of how to mitigate symptoms.
This class is intended for people born with a uterus/ovaries. There is a separate class for partners, siblings, and others born without a uterus/ovaries who would like to learn how to support those they know going through menopause.
For a deeper dive into hormones, peri-menopause, post-menopause and strategies to mitigate symptoms look for additional classes at The Chattery.
